  • a map 40 may be displayed on the flight display 22.
  • the map 40 may illustrate a visual representation of the terrain underlying the flight plan of the aircraft 10.
  • map 40 may be graphically illustrated in a variety of ways and that various objects, such as the runway, may be illustrated on the flight display 22 to better aid the pilot in making decisions. Further, the map 40 may take any variety of forms including a 2D map, a 3D map, a topographical map, etc.
  • At least a portion of a flight plan 42 including one or more waypoints 44 may be displayed on the map 40.
  • the information forming the flight plan 42, including the information for the waypoints 44 may be provided to the controller 30 by the pilot, the database, and/or information from airline control or flight operations department. Regardless of the manner of input or where the information originated, when the information related to the flight plan 42 is received by the controller 30 the controller 30 may then display such a flight plan 42 on the flight display 22.
  • the controller 30 may determine an unsuitability of at least a portion of the flight plan 42 based on at least one suitability criteria.
  • the one or more suitability criteria may be converted to an algorithm, which may be converted to a computer program comprising a set of executable instructions, which may be executed by the controller 30, which has access to the flight plan 42 and waypoints 44 entered into the FMS.
  • one or more particular waypoints 44 or portions of the flight plan 42 may be compared to the suitability criteria and a determination may be made if the one or more particular waypoints 44 or portions of the flight plan 42 satisfy the suitability criteria. If so, the one or more particular waypoints 44 or portions of the flight plan 42 may be considered suitable.
  • the controller 30 may determine an unsuitability of at least a portion of the flight plan 42 based on one or more suitability criteria.
  • the unsuitability of at least a portion of the flight plan 42 may be determined by the controller 30 based on suitability criteria, which may include at least one of pilot suitability criteria, which is set by the pilot and airline suitability criteria, which may be set by the airline or airline operations control.
  • the suitability criteria may include at least one of destination arrival time, weather preferences, and proximity preferences.
  • the suitability criteria may include a speed preferences, bank angle preferences, etc.
  • the destination arrival time may include a range of suitable times for the destination arrival.
  • Weather preferences may include a preferred distance from inclement weather.
  • Proximity preferences may include staying out of no-fly zones such as military operations areas or a preferred distance from high-altitude features. Taking into account any amount of the information above, the controller 30 may determine an unsuitability of at least a portion of the flight plan 42 by determining if the at least one suitability criteria would be satisfied if the aircraft 10 traveled the flight plan 42. If at least a portion of the flight plan 42 would cause the at least one suitability criteria to not be satisfied, then the controller 30 may determine that such a portion of the flight plan 42 is unsuitable.
  • determining an unsuitability of at least a portion of the flight plan 42 based on at least one suitability criteria may include the controller 30 comparing at least a portion of the flight plan 42 to at least one suitability criteria. For example, this may include comparing a trajectory of the aircraft 10 along the flight plan 42 against the at least one suitability criteria. This may include generating a predicted trajectory based on at least one of weather, terrain, fixed obstacles, and variable obstacles, and flight characteristics or performance attributes of the aircraft 10. Embodiments of the invention may use a database of terrain, weather, and additional information to generate the predicted trajectory to be compared with the at least one suitability criteria.
  • determining the unsuitability of the at least a portion of the flight plan 42 may include determining the unsuitability while the aircraft 10 is being flown along the flight plan 42.
  • current time and location of the aircraft 10 may also be considered in predicting the trajectory of the aircraft 10.
  • a pilot's or airline's constraints may also be considered by the controller 30 in generating the predicted trajectory.
  • a pilot's flight preferences may be one type of constraint. If the pilot prefers not to fly within a certain range of a mountain, then the controller 30 may utilize such information in generating the predicted trajectory. Further still, historical flight data on the specific flight plan 42 may be considered in generating the predicted trajectory.
  • the trajectory of the aircraft 10 may be compared to at least one suitability criteria.
  • the predicted trajectory may be compared with a destination arrival time. If the controller 30 determines that at least a portion of the flight plan 42 would cause the destination arrival time to not be satisfied, then the controller 30 may determine that such a portion of the flight plan 42 is unsuitable.
  • the term "satisfies" the at least one suitability criteria is used herein to mean that the predicted trajectory satisfies the predetermined at least one suitability criteria, such as being equal to, less than, or greater than the at least one suitability criteria. It will be understood that such a determination may easily be altered to be satisfied by a positive/negative comparison or a true/false comparison. For example, less than the at least one suitability criteria can easily be satisfied by applying a greater than test when the data is numerically inverted. It will be understood that in determining unsuitability or suitability of a portion of a flight plan 42 that unsuitability criteria may be used. In such an instance, if a portion of a flight plan 42 fails the unsuitability criteria, it is suitable.
  • the controller 30 may display on the flight display 22 indicia related to the determined unsuitability.
  • the indicia displayed may be any suitable indicia to indicate that the portion of the flight plan 42 has been determined to be unsuitable. Further, the indicia may be displayed in any suitable display manner. Any portion of the flight plan 42 that does not satisfy the suitability criteria may be indicated to the user through indicia to inform the user of areas of the flight plan 42 that are not in agreement with the criteria.
  • the waypoints 46 and the portions of the flight plan 47 have been determined to be unsuitable.
  • the displaying the indicia has been illustrated as including flagging the waypoint A and the waypoint B.
  • the waypoint A has been flagged with indicia 50
  • the waypoint B has been flagged with alternative indicia 52. It is contemplated that the displayed flagged waypoints A and/or the displayed flagged waypoint B or their corresponding indicia 50 and 52 may be user selectable.
  • the controller 30 may display information regarding the unsuitability of the corresponding waypoint.
  • the information may include why the waypoint was determined to be unsuitable.
  • the information may also include information related to altering the flight plan 42 to obtain a flight plan 42 that will satisfy the at least one suitability criteria.
  • the indicia may be associated with a corresponding portion of the flight plan 42.
  • the indicia may be displayed near the corresponding portion of the flight plan 42 or the indicia may be displayed on the corresponding portion of the flight plan 42.
  • the indicia may be shown in a portion of the flight display 22 not associated with the corresponding portion of the flight plan 42, such as a text box in a corner of the flight display 22.
  • At least a suitable portion of a flight plan or at least one suitable alternative waypoint location may be displayed when the at least a portion of the flight plan 42 is determined to be unsuitable. It is contemplated that this may be in addition to the indicia or that the indicia displayed may be the suitable alternative to the at least a portion of the flight plan 42, which was determined to be unsuitable.
  • a suitable portion of a flight plan including a series of suitable alternative waypoints have been displayed and denoted as 54.
  • the suitable alternative waypoints 54 may form an alternative flight plan that creates a suitable flight plan based on the at least one suitability criteria.
  • the alternative waypoints 54 may be determined by the controller 30 based on at least one of weather, terrain, fixed obstacles, variable obstacles, flight characteristics of the aircraft 10, etc. Further, the controller 30 may look at other portions of the flight plan and the pilot's or airlines' constraints in determining the suitable alternative waypoints 54. While a series of suitable alternative waypoints 54 have been illustrated it will be understood that a single suitable alternative waypoint may be determined and displayed. Further, a variety of suitable alternative waypoints may be displayed to give the user a variety of choices.
  • Both the unsuitable portion of the flight plan 47 and the suitable flight plan including the suitable alternative waypoints54 may be displayed on the flight display 22.
  • the suitable alternative waypoints 54 may be displayed in a visually distinguishable manner from the remainder of the flight plan 42. Displaying the suitable alternative waypoints 54 in a distinguishable manner may be done in any suitable manner.
  • displaying the suitable alternative waypoints 54 in a distinguishable manner may include displaying the suitable alternative waypoints 54 with at least one of a different color and a different opacity from the remainder of the flight plan 42.
  • the user may select the suitable alternative waypoints 54 for its inclusion in the flight plan 42.
  • the selection of the suitable alternative waypoints 54 may be received by the controller 30. Once the controller 30 has received such a user selection the waypoints 46 and the portions of the flight plan 47 that have been determined to be unsuitable may be removed from the flight display 22 and the suitable alternative waypoints 54 may be displayed as being undistinguishable from the remainder of the flight plan 42 and any other waypoints displayed on the flight display 22. Further, the suitable alternative waypoints 54 may be considered by the controller 30 to be included within the flight plan.
  • the controller 30 may further alert the user that the display indicia related to the unsuitability of the at least a portion of the flight plan has been displayed. This may include causing the indicia to flash or brighten on the flight display 22. Many graphical and illustrative techniques may be used to draw the user's attention to the display indicia.
  • the controller 30 may also audibly alert the user using any suitable mechanism located in the flight deck 18.
  • a variety of scenarios may render a flight plan that was initially suitable to be unsuitable based on at least one suitability criteria. For example, a greater headwind may be encountered during flight, which may reduce the amount of fuel available to fly the remainder of the flight plan. Such a scenario may cause the destination arrival time to be pushed back because higher altitudes may not be reachable. Further, the aircraft may initially be stuck on the runway, may encounter weather, or may not burn fuel at the expected rate due to engine characteristics. Currently when such scenarios occur a pilot must determine if such factors are important. Depending on the perceived importance, the pilot may or may not relay such factors to ground control. The pilot depending on the perceived importance may ask for a reroute from ground control.
  • ground control may reroute the plane regardless of whether the pilot has asked for a re-route. It will be understood that a variety of information must be perceived, judgments regarding the importance of such information must be made, and this may all take a considerable amount of time and effort.
  • Embodiments above provide a variety of benefits including that an entered flight plan along with various information may be analyzed and the aircraft may present the pilot with a list of points along the entered flight plan that have been found to be unsuitable based thereon.
  • Embodiments above present alternative segments of the flight plan to give the user a new flight plan that will satisfy the criteria and provide the user with an acceptable flight plan alternative without additional input being needed from the user.
  • the above embodiments simplify the pilot interface and allow for time savings in that the user does not have to manually account for this data. Instead, standards for the flight plan may be set and then the user may be quickly and intuitively be shown any issues in the flight plan both before and during flight.
